The DB4 will probably work. It's not nominally designed for channels 7-13, but most of the channels in that band available to you are very strong. It might not have enough gain for reliable reception...

One thing first - unplugging a preamp turns it into an attenuator, that is it will block signal instead of amplifying. To really test a "without amp" setup, the preamp must be completely removed from...
